about

There are tons of love songs, lots of breakup songs, but this one is in between, an “ambivalent love song.” The inspiration was a brief conversation: “This car was my father’s. It smells like cigars.” “Yes, and it never won’t.” You never know where a song idea will originate.

lyrics

Never Won't
© 2018 by R. Bowdon

It's not untrue, I never won't keep loving you
If you'll always promise sometimes not to cry
Your promises to keep / I dreamed them in my sleep
I'll almost always never say goodbye, goodbye
I never won't stop telling you goodbye

Our love's become a knotted thread
of feelings running through my head
a ball of yarn, a tangled mess
unraveled from a wedding dress

It's not untrue, I never won't keep loving you
If you'll always promise sometimes not to cry
Your promises to keep / I dreamed them in my sleep
I'll almost always never say goodbye, goodbye
I never won't stop telling you goodbye

Just like on San Francisco Bay
at moonrise on a foggy day
as seen inside a crystal ball
that's out of focus, dim and small

It's not untrue, I never won't keep loving you
If you'll always promise sometimes not to cry
Your promises to keep / I dreamed them in my sleep
I'll almost always never say goodbye, goodbye
I never won't stop telling you goodbye, goodbye
I never won't stop telling you goodbye
